Justine, raised as a rigorous vegetarian, arrives as a freshman at the reputable Saint-Exupéry Veterinary School. As she leaves the family home, Justine abruptly moves into a mad new world of strange school traditions and vicious initiation tests, and before long, she must chew over her unshakable herbivorous beliefs.

Leave your thoughts about Raw.
| Rolling StoneDavid FearIf "Get Out" reminds folks that you can smuggle intelligent social commentary and timely conversation-starters in to theaters via explosive genre packages, then Ducournau's feature debut doubles down on the notion. In terms of the female-body politic, it's an art-horror dirty bomb. |
| SciFiNowJonathan HatfullIt's savage but heartfelt, gruesome but wickedly funny, and as Justine is forced to find her own way through this nightmare, it's moving too. This is essential viewing. |
| Bust MagazineJenni MillerRaw is horrifying and gorgeous, with fantastic performances by Marillier, Rumpf, and Rabah Nait Oufella. |
| The Hollywood NewsKat HughesFerocious and flawless, Raw grips you from the get go and doesn't spit you out until the bitter end. Simply incredible. |
| Daily Telegraph (UK)Rebecca HawkesIts power - its shuddering, relentless intensity - lies in the way it makes you vicariously feel both her dual hungers, and surreptitiously relish every sticky, illicit bite. |
| Observer (UK)Mark KermodeDirected with the same cross-genre dexterity as Kathryn Bigelow's seminal vampire western Near Dark, Raw is a thrillingly confident and vigorously executed work. |
| Irish IndependentPaul WhitingtonJulia Ducournau's feature debut Raw has been described as one of the most unsettling horror films ever made, but there's a whole lot more to it than that. It gets under your skin from the word go. |
| Little White LiesAnton BitelRaw ... exposes the everyday monstrousness each of us harbours within our soft, fragile exteriors, and the accommodations we have to make with our darker nature. |
| Total FilmAli CatterallA bracing and brilliant original, with a delicious script and meaty performances. |
| Brooklyn MagazineBenjamin MercerA credible candidate for the midnight-movie canon. |
